Paint Party Friday

My Muse is on Vacation 

I'm sure she is somewhere amazing

Playing in warm ocean waves and trekking through lush  tropical rain forests... 

....absorbing all that Mother Nature has to offer.

Becoming one with the universe...

Spiritually growing by leaps and bonds! 

Temporarily leaving me alone....

struggling with this WIP...

...3 weeks and very little progress...wondering low long she will be gone and if I will ever get this Mixed Media thing done. 

I know she'll come home.... I think she's trying to teach me a lesson...

Will I learn?

Oh and so so sorry for showing up late again. 

Paint Party Friday

Can you say

Late! LATE! Late!?!

I had such great intentions and started it early enough. And then that nasty flu bug that is getting so much attention in the news struck :0( 

I was down for the count...and just when I thought I was getting better it took off in a different direction and I was down again. 

So what started out as last weeks PRF 's work is now this weeks and is even late for that. 

This year I have also joined Guada's Circle 

and am participating in the 

Totem Animal Mandala Challenge for 2013. 

Here is my first Mandala 

The picture sucks...used my cellphone :0/

I re-purposed a 8 X 8 inch canvas that I had done an acrylic abstract on last year...using the abstract as the background. I did the Mandala in acrylics and India Inks. I had intended to put lettering at the top and will probably go back and do that when I'm more recovered.
